The Chiefs just need to rest Mahomes for the next 2 games. If they lose both of them & Buffalo wins both of theirs, they can then start Mahomes for the Denver game so he will be warmed up for their wildcard weekend game.

OR “you messed up calling time out!”

Excuse me for asking, but this the first time time looking at this chart. For Josh , it looks like he is slightly above average on his accuracy, but he has receivers who are very bad at getting open, relative to the rest of the league? If so, that would’ve been my guess before looking at that chart. .

Campbell played well yesterday. He tackled Josh 10+ yards downfield. I can’t believe Campbell is 38!

Except that it’s his right wrist that’s supposed to be injured. It looks like the left wrist hit hard & awkwardly on the ground. Or at least it was his left wrist that appeared to take the weight of his body as he landed.

I’m 2 weeks younger than my favorite team!

That college highlight video shows Virgil has plenty of speed and agility. If he’s smart, he’ll hang around Cooper and learn route running and the finer points of being an NFL WR!

I’m not sure there’s a test that would predict the future for a kicker. A lot of us thought we were invincible coming out of college at 22. Then as we age, reality sets in and we get a few “scars”. How we react to these scars is the big question. For golfers, some develop “the yips” & miss easy putts at times. I view kickers similarly to golfers. Bass has shanked kicks multiple times now and that’s like a golfer shanking an iron into the gallery or 3 putting from 5 feet. It’s very rare for someone to completely overcome that. Unfortunately, missing a kick is way more consequential than one bad golf shot.

Great PS signing! Very high upside potential with minimal risk. I see the 2 big factors in his downfall at Minnesota as the serious leg injury his rookie season, followed by a new defensive coordinator coming in after his rookie season. Now he gets his new start with his old college position coach and his new head coach loves to coach up DBs. This really has the potential to be a great redemption story. Let’s hope this potential story becomes reality over the next few years.

As someone who has watched a bunch of Oklahoma football, I consider Caleb Williams to have the arm strength and athleticism of Kyler Murray and the competitive fire & football IQ of Baker Mayfield. And, I say that as someone who is not a Caleb Williams fan because he transferred from OU to USC. Personally, I am just glad he ended up in the NFC, because I think he will be a very good NFL quarterback. I should also add that I am correct 50% of the time!

I watched him play as a freshman at Oklahoma and he was incredible. He has a very high football IQ & is extremely competitive. I hated to see him follow Lincoln Riley to USC. I believe he also has the physical attributes to be successful in the NFL. I will be surprised if he doesn’t become a very good NFL QB & I am very happy he’s in the NFC.

Amy Grant released a very popular Christian song “El Shaddai” in 1982. It includes the name Adonai. She pronounced it “ah-doe-nigh”. Adonai Mitchell’s parents may have heard “El Shaddai” on the radio or at church. I know I did.

I was a big OJ fan growing up. We moved out of Buffalo around the time he started playing for the Bills & he was the main reason any Buffalo games were shown nationwide, which was my only chance to watch Bills. Growing up a big sports fan, my childhood heroes (other than my dad) were athletes & many also turned out to be great people, like Lou Brock (St Louis Cardinals), the Selmon Brothers (Oklahoma football), etc., However, not all of my childhood heroes were worth idolizing and some are now not worth remembering….OJ tops that list for me. In the end, my only wish for OJ was for a deathbed confession, but that apparently didn’t happen, or his family will never share it.

I have to admit that you did predict Diggs being traded, & his production & performance was below average for him for the rest of the season. You did miss your IR prediction, but overall it does look like a much better take today than it did then. The unanswered question is whether Diggs declining production was due to a bad attitude, a change in the OC or nagging injuries. It could’ve been all three. The way he was traded in the offseason leads me to believe his attitude was at least a part of his subpar performance.

Justin Shorter will get a chance to show if he can be a contributor. Here’s hoping he’s like Shakir & Bernard & has a great improvement in his second year on the roster.
